Coming in beaming with optimism and positivity is the triumphant energy by singer/songwriter Zack Landry and his latest single “Hold On”. A 5-minute celebration of faith and empowerment wrapped up in an exciting presentation, this a musical highlight for both those of a specific faith and even those who aren’t …

Gary Pratt lets it all hang out and in the process takes his old school sensibilities and turns them into something that feels new and modern with his newest album “Something Worth Remembering”. He’s the kind of guy you wanna sit down and have a beer with after a long …

One of the hardest things that come with the territory of releasing a cover album is the immediate comparisons the artist brings upon themselves by releasing work that didn’t originate with them. It takes a special type of confidence to pull it off, and even more than that, any act …
